I did have a weird issue with my printer under nix, turns out it was a bug. I guess 1h time investment is about right.

But that also meant that my Laptop and my GF’s PC were a 0 seconds time investment.

I think that’s neat :D

Kimai is a great option

Pretty sure you can configure it with a key so only authorized clients can use it

It was pretty great, wasn’t it?

Although I must say. I eventually landed on neovim. Steep, steep learning curve, but now I would not switch back again.

I gave it serious consideration when the death of Atom was announced and I was unsure where to move on to.

Looks like in the meantime a lot has been done (as far as I remember, TreeSitter and LSP weren’t built in back then…? Not sure though), but the lack of a plugin system is still killing it for me.

TBH it looks like it has 75% of the features you want from a codeditor, which is much more than the use-case for Nano, but no way to go the remaining 25% of the way.

Yeah this is severely lacking in terms of theoretical compsci.

I’m waiting for the Proxmox NixOS project to take off. I like the (network) seperability.

Laughs in Proxmox + NixOS

(yes I know not for every usecase)

Oh wow, this is literally what I’ve been waiting for.

Edit: OK, it’s not quite there yet.

Sioyek also does this

Highly recommend, esp. if you like using vim keybinds (you abviously don’t have to, but IMO it’s a fantastic feature)

Why not just use home-manager on arch?

Are there? I think they’re super handy for just… Having information. Easily discoverable by search engines, and much more coherent than following a forum thread.

As the author of an obscure static site generator. I feel called out.

My personal blog currently has one (1) post. It’s about how to get started blogging with my SSG. Oops.

• Windows (family PC)
• a BUNCH of Ubuntu-based distros (Ubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu Studio (which was awesome btw), Mint,… ) on my first own PC
• Arch for years and years and years
• NixOS

I wouldn’t count the last switch as distro hopping though. It was a calculated decision after months of deliberation and trying things out. And now that everything is set up, I am very certain that I’ll never switch to another distro again, Nix is just too good.

And usually Usenet does lend quite a bit of releases you usually see on private indexers or some publics.

Right, that’s also true.

Yes, they do!! With torrents, it just takes a single seeder to keep the torrent alive, but Usenet isn’t peer to peer - you’re downloading stuff from a centralized server(s), and they simply cannot keep everything alive forever.

IMO it’s fine though. Usenet provides you with very timely access to all the “newest” stuff, in excellent, very consistent quality.

And for older stuff, there’s torrents.

I pay for one Usenet provider/indexer. I also still use tons of torrent sources.

90% of the time, stuff that I’m monitoring gets downloaded via Usenet for currently airing or rather new shows.

50% of the time when actively looking for stuff from the past 5-10 years I use Usenet, the other half is torrents

90% of stuff older than that, I only find torrents

100% of non-English stiff I get from torrents (I’m subscribed to an English Usenet indexer though, so that tracks).

In short: Why not use both?
